It's always important to be yourself.
The only person pressuring me is myself.
I feel more mature than most people my age.
You can't judge anyone for what they've done, because people change.
I remember looking through magazines or watching movies even just a couple of years ago and being like, 'I really want to be part of that,' but not realizing what that was.
I never played sports. I wasn't any good at them.
I'm not sure I ever want to get married.
When I'm singing a song, I picture somebody in particular. A lot of it is to a guy.
I want an identity outside of my work.
I never wear makeup when I'm not at work. It can make you forget what you look like, and I've grown to really love the way I look without it.
Singing really is acting. In a lot of ways, it's much more personal. I love music, and being able to work on that is amazing.
It's so important to always be yourself. If you do that, you will be successful as you, instead of worrying about trying to conform.
When you see how you react when you suffer that's when you know what you are made of.
I'm not really a partier, in general. I've definitely learned that that's probably the least interesting thing you can do with your time.
